Donald D. Charron, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The softness that we felt in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 continued into the first quarter of fiscal year 2016. We were, however, encouraged by the firmer demand that we began to see at the end of the quarter. We are focused on the successful launch of a number of new business awards with both existing and new customers. Our new business opportunities pipeline remains healthy, and we continue to work diligently to achieve our medium range goal of $1 billion in annual sales by fiscal year 2018.”
Mr. Charron continued, “This has been a challenging quarter for us. In addition to the slowing China automotive market, incremental costs related to the Romania greenfield start-up, the ramp up of a significant new product introduction, and foreign exchange headwinds impacted our results. We remain committed to our four percent operating income goal and are responding with the appropriate short-term actions while maintaining alignment with our long-term strategic plan.”
First Quarter Fiscal Year 2016 Overview:
| |
• | Net sales declined 2% from the prior year first quarter due, in part, to a $12.9 million reduction related to the exit of Johnson ControIs, Inc. compared to the same quarter last year. |
| |
• | Spin-off expenses in the current year first quarter were $0.1 million. Prior year first quarter spin-off costs were $1.0 million. |
| |
• | Incremental costs associated with the start-up of the Company’s new Romania facility reduced net income by $0.3 million in the fiscal year 2016 first quarter. |
| |
• | Investments in capital expenditures were $11.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2015. |
| |
• | Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2015 were $52.7 million. |
| |
• | Days sales outstanding, calculated as the average of monthly trade accounts and notes receivable divided by one day’s average net sales, was 58.7 days for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to 57.4 days for the three months ended September 30, 2014. |
| |

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained within this release are considered forward-looking under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, our ability to fully realize the expected benefits of the completed spin-off, the global economic conditions, significant volume reductions from key contract customers, loss of key customers or suppliers, financial stability of key customers and suppliers, availability or cost of raw materials, and increased competitive pricing pressures reflecting excess industry capacities. Additional cautionary statements regarding other risk factors that could have an effect on the future performance of the Company are contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the United States in the statement of income, statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, or statement of equity of the company. The non-GAAP financial measures contained herein include an adjustment for spin-off expenses. Reconciliations of the reported GAAP numbers to these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the financial highlights table below. Management believes it is useful for investors to understand how its core operations performed without the effects of the spin-off expenses. Excluding these amounts allows investors to meaningfully trend, analyze, and benchmark the performance of the Company’s core operations. Many of the Company’s internal performance measures that management uses to make certain operating decisions exclude these charges to enable meaningful trending of core operating metrics.
